Abstract :
A two semester general chemistry course sequence was developed for an integrated freshman engineering curriculum. The curriculum incorporates cooperative learning and teaming in calculus, chemistry, physics and general engineering studies courses. The paper describes the general chemistry courses, how they were integrated into the curriculum, the use of teaming, and our experience after the first two years
